The Relationship Between Demand and Total/Marginal Utility What is “Total Utility” What is “Marginal Utility” What is the “The Law of Diminishing
Marginal Utility”

Discussion Question
With a partner discuss the following:
How are the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility and the Law of Demand related?
![Page 6: Demand, Supply, and Equilibrium - lcps.org€¦ · EX: Demand for Coke would increase if the price of Pepsi went up Complementary goods EX: Demand for jelly would decrease if](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5f0ad3487e708231d42d86d9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Law of Demand
Why is the Demand Curve downward sloping? ◦ Price is an obstacle to buying ◦ Diminishing marginal utility Consumers need incentives to consume
more What is the incentive in the case of the
demand curve?

Demand vs. Quantity Demanded
Quantity Demanded = the quantity of product consumers are willing and able to buy at a specific price
Demand = every combination of prices
and quantities consumers are willing and able to buy (I.E. THE DEMAND CURVE)
![Page 9: Demand, Supply, and Equilibrium - lcps.org€¦ · EX: Demand for Coke would increase if the price of Pepsi went up Complementary goods EX: Demand for jelly would decrease if](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5f0ad3487e708231d42d86d9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Changes to Quantity Demanded
The ONLY thing that causes changes to Quantity Demanded is PRICE
With a partner discuss the following question:
What are the causes of changes to DEMAND? Or, what causes the Demand Curve to shift?
![Page 11: Demand, Supply, and Equilibrium - lcps.org€¦ · EX: Demand for Coke would increase if the price of Pepsi went up Complementary goods EX: Demand for jelly would decrease if](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5f0ad3487e708231d42d86d9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Determinants of Demand
Consumer tastes/preferences ◦ EX: Demand for bananas would increase if bananas were found to treat headaches
# of buyers in the market ◦ EX: Demand for US made cars would increase if a natural disaster destroyed car factories in Japan
![Page 12: Demand, Supply, and Equilibrium - lcps.org€¦ · EX: Demand for Coke would increase if the price of Pepsi went up Complementary goods EX: Demand for jelly would decrease if](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5f0ad3487e708231d42d86d9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Determinants of Demand
Prices of related goods ◦ Substitute goods EX: Demand for Coke would increase
if the price of Pepsi went up
◦Complementary goods EX: Demand for jelly would decrease if
the price of peanut butter went up
![Page 13: Demand, Supply, and Equilibrium - lcps.org€¦ · EX: Demand for Coke would increase if the price of Pepsi went up Complementary goods EX: Demand for jelly would decrease if](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5f0ad3487e708231d42d86d9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Determinants of Demand
Consumers’ incomes ◦ EX: Demand for luxury cars would
increase if the average income of an American worker went up significantly
Consumer expectations ◦ EX: Demand for iPhone 5C’s would
increase if consumers expected the price of 5C’s was going to go up next month

Determinants of Demand
With your partner, redraw the demand curves on your note pages based on your understanding of “Changes to Demand”

Law of Supply
Why is the Supply Curve upward sloping? ◦ Price is an incentive to sell more product ◦ Increase in Quantity = Increases in marginal
cost (cost of supplying ONE more product)

With a partner discuss the following question:

Determinants of Supply Resource prices ◦ Prices of inputs (factors of production!) ???, ???, and ??? ◦ EX: The minimum wage increases which
decreases supply (increase in labor costs = less resources to produce)
Technology ◦ Technology which improves efficiency will
increase supply EX: Installing robots in factories increases the
number of cars produced

Determinants of Supply Taxes and subsidies ◦ Taxes – decrease supply ◦ Subsidies – increase supply
Producer expectations ◦ EX: If Apple thinks the price of cell phones will go
down next year, they will produce/supply more now
# of sellers in the market ◦ EX: If bananas are found to cure headaches, apple
growers will switch to growing bananas, thus increasing supply

Market Equilibrium
Equilibrium price = “market clearing price” ◦Or the price at which buyers and sellers
agree
Equilibrium quantity = “market clearing quantity” ◦Or the quantity at which buyers and
sellers agree

Market Equilibrium
Market equilibrium ensures ◦MB ≥ MC for each consumer or supplier willing and able to buy or sell at the market price

Discussion Question
What happens to the market equilibrium price and/or quantity if there is a change in the demand or supply curve?
![Page 31: Demand, Supply, and Equilibrium - lcps.org€¦ · EX: Demand for Coke would increase if the price of Pepsi went up Complementary goods EX: Demand for jelly would decrease if](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5f0ad3487e708231d42d86d9/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Equilibrium and Changes to Supply and/or Demand When there are changes to either
the demand curve or supply curve or both: ◦ Changes in the market equilibrium price
can occur ◦ Changes in the market equilibrium
quantity can occur ◦ Changes to BOTH market equilibrium
price AND quantity can occur

Market Prices
Market Prices Ensure: ◦ Information is shared among all
consumers and suppliers Key aspect of decision making ◦ Resources are allocated/distributed
efficiently To those consumers who value them the
most To those goods and services valued the
most

Market Prices
Market Prices Ensure: ◦There are incentives to work and produce Higher prices are an incentive for
producers to produce more Higher wages (a price of labor) are an
incentive for workers to seek work or to seek higher paying jobs

Discussion Question
What if the market price is too high? Or too low? What do you think will occur in these instances?
![Page 39: Demand, Supply, and Equilibrium - lcps.org€¦ · EX: Demand for Coke would increase if the price of Pepsi went up Complementary goods EX: Demand for jelly would decrease if](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5f0ad3487e708231d42d86d9/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Market Price Failures Prices are too low, shortages result ◦ Higher quantity demanded (“excess demand”)
due to lower price ◦ Less quantity supplied due to lower price
Prices are too high, surpluses result ◦ Higher quantity supplied (“excess supply”) due to
higher price ◦ Less quantity demanded due to higher price
Market price failures occur only in the short term as the market will correct to the proper equilibrium price over time

When do governments intervene in the markets? Price controls ◦ Gov’ts believe or are convinced that
allowing markets to coordinate trade will result in unfairly high prices for consumers or unfairly low prices for producers ◦ Two types of price controls: Price ceilings Price floors
![Page 41: Demand, Supply, and Equilibrium - lcps.org€¦ · EX: Demand for Coke would increase if the price of Pepsi went up Complementary goods EX: Demand for jelly would decrease if](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5f0ad3487e708231d42d86d9/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
